Stakeholders have flayed the composition of Divisional Railway Users’ Consultative Committee (DRUCC) and also the proceedings on the grounds that the meetings follow a set-pattern of stock answers laced in railway lingo or jargon.
The DRUCC meetings are conducted every quarter but there is criticism that the committee is not adequately represented by all regions coming under the Mysuru division’s jurisdiction and hence, the demands and aspirations of people in certain areas goes unheard and unrepresented.
The Mysuru DRUCC meeting was held last week and a section of the members who attended it said that there was greater representation of Mysuru and surrounding regions in the committee. As a result, only issues related to Mysuru per se was discussed while the rest of the division did not get adequate attention.
